Local government is often characterised as being well‐placed to enact a successful agenda for environmental sustainability because of its closeness to both people and the environment. The purpose of this article is to examine the extent to which this assumption is correct in terms of local government environmental policies and programs in rural Australia. Using case studies with eight local government authorities in Queensland and New South Wales, the article documents three different positions on a continuum of environmental engagement. These are ‘disengaged’, ‘moving towards engagement’ and ‘engaged’. The article concludes by arguing that the resource constraints facing rural local councils limit their capacity to engage with environmental management
